Several champions have stepped forward to help define the BU Research Themes. You may recall I asked for people to help frame these themes and encouraged as many people as possible to step forward with their thoughts. In fact the more views we have for each theme the more debate we can generate.
To help this debate we are posting the detail from the templates on a special part of blog – the Themes page. I encourage everybody to engage and to comment on the text as it is posted. If you feel inspired then fill in a template as well! The more people that get involved with this debate the stronger the definition of each research theme will be. So please have your say!
For the template, please see my previous Research Themes post.
